More Home Work

So, how do we keep busy on rainy days? Well, we "fold" laundry, wear vests and play dress up, to name but a few. Please note: all vests supplied by the hand of Nanna Carolyn, except the pink striped one as you devoted readers might recognize as the Highlander Mandress. And the purse? Yes, thats my old suede number that I used to rock downtown Orlando with. Thats right.

springtime

Supposedly, spring has arrived. and on some days, I believe it. The weather is warmer, the bulbs are blooming and the cherries are blossoming. But the rains continue to fall and its been a bit chilly as of late. We've been loving our Friday mornings at Sunfield Farm, our local Waldorf farm/school. Jonah's been meeting chickens (bagas), sheep (baas), cows (boos), cats (numenahs), and bunnies (.......) as well as spending time with his wonderful friends. We've also been busy planting native trees and shrubs on our land. Jonah is an amazing helper; he loves to hammer in the stakes and hand me "baby hats" (aka plant protectors). We've also been in the garden preparing beds for spring planting. All in all, a busy season, even if it still a little wet and rainy outside

SNOW!

He's 2!

Crazed on sugar, beer and massaged kale salad, Jonah celebrated the big 2. Happy Birthday my darling boy!

Aunty Alissa Comes to Town

Two weeks with Aunty Alissa was the best. She and Jonah get on like a house on fire, even if his name for her is a monkey sound. They were inseparable - some of their fun included but is not limited to: making dough, learning what a chalkboard is and isn't, assembling small furniture, cracking nuts, leaping, massaging leafy greens, making movies and taking photos of each other so terrifying, I cannot post them here. Aunty and Mother also donned their Sister hats and took to the bars and streets of Seattle leaping for their love of each other.
